In The Division, the PvE area of the open world is set to be revitalized. This was revealed by Community Developer Hamish Bode.
Once agents reach the max level of 30 and have successfully completed all fights and side missions, they will only find themselves in the Dark Zone or within designated missions. The rest of the open world becomes uninteresting. Some players might still eagerly search to collect all the “filler content” in The Division. However, for agents who are only after action and shootouts, there are no more challenges here.
The Dark Zone, the PvP area, is intended for long-term gameplay enjoyment. However, the morale of upright agents is currently being dampened by numerous hackers and cheaters. Many agents – especially those on PC – would appreciate more variety in PvE given the current situation. What does Massive say about this?
There are plans to “revitalize” the open world
During a Twitch stream, Community Developer Hamish Bode was asked if there were any plans to revitalize the PvE area. And Bode replied: Yes, there are.
Fans of PvE can therefore look forward to the future of The Division, although the Community Developer did not elaborate on what specific changes will be introduced or when they will come.
In May, we can expect Update 1.2 “Conflict”, which will be free for all. This is intended to deliver a new raid and new challenge modes. However, the focus of this update will be on the Dark Zone: New features in the PvP area are meant to herald the “beginning of a wild manhunt in the Dark Zone.”
Therefore, significant changes in the open world are likely to come only with the “Underground” expansion, which is set to release in June. Little is currently known about this DLC, which is included in the season pass.
